MlDDLEBURY, VT, Jan. 2O.-Ihe Yer

held its annual meeting Ht the Addison
House this afternoon. The president.
Hon. w. G. Smith of St Alhans, being
absent, the chair was occupied by Vice
President f. ID. Barton of Nerzennes.
The first business in order was the
report of the secretary and treas
urer, George Hammond OF Middlebury.
From Mr.. lIammond's report it was
shown than on January |, 1886, there
was S6Gi - in the treasury and the
receipts from all sources during the year
were 1904 10, or a total of $l2GS. 90 The
expenditures of the year We're Ss25 %,
leaving Il cash balance of S443.7l The
total assets are $li53 "a and the liabilities
are SlOs6 81. The report was accepted and
adopted.
On motion of f.. y. Kinds nominating
committee OF three was appointed by the
chiur. me following gentlemen com
posed the committee; f. ID. Kinds of
Plttsiord, DR.. c. II. Prentiss of Middle
bury and II. NJ. Bottum of salisbury.
While the committee were out confer
ring over the nominations to he reported,
&. w. Mason. well known sheep man of
New Haven. was asked for his opinion of
the prospects for the sheep trade in the
West Mr.. Mason spent some time in the
West during the past fall and he made
some brief remarks. He stated that in hls
opinion they want our sheep, when they
are good big ones with lots OF wOUl-In the
West, and Will continue to want Them
and that although Drlces are low at pres
ent, yet both prices and the demand for
good sheep must necessarily Increase. Mr.
MasOn's remarks were of cheering
character and evidently had Il good effect
on the meeting.
The committee on nominations then re
ported as follows: For president, +. ID.
Barton of Nergennes vice presidents, r.
j. Jones of Cornwall and Henry Thorp OF
Charlotte; Tor directors, >. G.. HolyOke of

An Opportunity for Enlargiug the city
Park

The board of directors of the Y. VI. C..
y. held II meeting Wednesday eveningund
among other matters they discussed the
question whether it would be advisable to
dispose of their property, to he added to
the park, as has been suggested by many.
After some discussion a resolution was
passed to the effect that if there should
prove to he public demand for
such enlargement of the park
the association would recognize it and
negotiate with the city for the sale of their
lot. In speaking of this action the officers
oi the association say that they consider
that institution in the light of a public
good and whatever is for the public wei
fare is in harmony with their interests.
The question has been variously discussed
by our residents Some hold that in the
near future or at least when Burlington
becomes the city we all hope it will
be, Il larger park will be desirable,
rs well as Il new City Hall and that by
erecting the latter ut some other point the
city could, if it owned the Y. NJ. G. a. lot,
readily extend the park to Church street.
Others think the present park Is rs large
as the city will need for many decades to
come and that a fine building, such as the
Y. NJ. G. a. would erect, would be more Of
an ornament than the addition to the park.
If the city wants this property it will
probably be long time before II Will nave
another opportunity to buy 1t and the
matter should be intelligently considered
now. AS we understand it the Y. NJ. g.
a. directors will gain nothing by selling
rs they will then naturally be compelled
to buy lot and build. There is no
building available at present which
could be adapted to the needs of IA reading
room, hall, gymnasium, bath and other
rooms such as are now furnished in Y. NJ.
G. A. buildings. Their position is that if
the city desires to extend the park to
Church street, they will sell their present
property if not, they will build where
they are. 1t is for the public to decide.

CARNIVAL MATTERS.
Announcement ofthe Various Committees
-Gond progrcSs Eeing Mnde.

The carnival preparations are so well
advanced that the executive committee
are enabled to give assurances in relation
to everything in connection with that
event except the weather. Everything else
Is provided for Our residents have taken
hold of the matter with an enthusiasm
that exceeds all expectation aud 50 far as
the programme is concerned the carnival
will he a great success. The indications
of large attendance from the principal
cities rs well as small towns are also as
surlng. Local prophets say that the pres
ent warm spell is an omen Of favorable
weather in the middle of February. 1t
certainly lessons the probability of a thaw
at that time, but it has done much more
than that 1t has conduced to the
disappearance of the ice in the
lake with its deep covering of
snow that would have rende I'd ice
boating difficult if not impossible. More
over the chances are all in favor of the
lake freezing over again soon and all
against the recurrence before carnival
week of another such snow fall as that OF
the past two weeks AS far as human eye
can discern therefore the outlook all
things considered, could not well be more
promising.
In the meantime the executive commit
tee are rot idle. They are holding almost
daily meetings and pushing preparations
with the utmost energy. At their meet
ing of saturday evening, they appointed
